2010.10.03 Maren Riley

What a day! And what a cute little girl. Maren is inquisitive, fast, fearless and fast. Did I mention fast? I thought my kids had taught me something about energy. Turns out, I know nothing. Mom and Dad have their hands full - but as you see it is well worth it. Godspeed.

2010.03.07 Kelly Kids

I have watched each of these kids grow up for the last four years. We are privileged to call them friends. Harper is taller than my wife. Jack is playing 'Smoke on the Water'. Oliver is full of energy and mischief. And Daleigh is already a year old. Amazing. Godspeed.

Christmas in Texas

Warmer than Kansas City and less snow. We always have fun when the whole family gets together. How can you not when there are 7 boys ranging from 8 months to 8 years? It was also an opportunity to take some snaps of both the willing and the unwilling. Thanks for everything. Godspeed.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to you and your family. We hope that the peace and joy of our Lord and Savior is graces you and your family. Remember what He has given you. And remember that you are called to do what you can where you are with what you have. We are thankful for your friendship, and we hope to see you in 2010.

Kelly Family

Its hard not to have a good time with the Kellys. I am continually amazed at how relaxed they are with these four high-octane kids to keep track of. We took advantage of a beautiful fall day, piled into the family bus and headed down to the Nelson-Atkins Museum. Truly enjoyable. Godspeed.

Fagan Family

It was a simple hike through the woods on a crisp fall day. That was the whole plan, and it worked. Adam and Isaac found all kinds of stuff to play with on the way. I had my favorite toy with me - so I was set. And Mom and Dad had their hands full with the three of us boys! Had a great time. Godspeed.

Barrette Family

We started the day getting a little wet and wondering what we were doing out on a day like this. But in the end, it all worked out. We had a great time tromping through the mud and putting those sassy red shoes to the test - I am pretty sure that Laura will never forgive me! I hope you guys had as much fun as I did. Thanks for the opportunity. Godspeed.

The Putthoff Family

This family is an inspiration to those that know them. They have faced, and indeed are facing, the most difficult situations with grace, peace, and joy. I was fortunate to be able to capture a glimpse of that joy in these images. We love you and continue to pray that God works in and through your lives. Godspeed.

Jackson Turns Three

Jackson is all boy and he is turning three. On the move and ready to explore anything and everything. He taught me how to climb, jump, run, hide and throw. We had a ball during this shoot and in the end I was the one that was 'shot'. Happy Birthday buddy!

Aidan and Mason

We stopped at Rockbridge State Park on the way back from Saint Louis. I took this opportunity to take a couple of snaps of the boys. What a beautiful fall day! Godspeed.
